RTS: The death of a genre

Once upon a time, not so long ago, in the wonderful world of gaming, there was only one platform that dominated the rest: the PC. Sure, there were console options available to the growing home gamer demographic, but they were quickly outdated and nowhere near as versatile as the ever-upgrading personal computer. Gaming genres were born and flourished under the reign of the keyboard/mouse combo, and while some adapted more readily to consoles and the questionable accuracy of their handheld controllers, PC gamers scoffed at the idea of certain genres making a successful transition.
